Ms Carolan Lennon:

I am speaking about the model and process they ended up with, which involved making all things equal, almost as if one was building a greenfield network and not taking into account that infrastructure is in place - in the 300,000 area - which could be leveraged. I do not understand why we want to give a better service level agreement in rural Ireland than we do in the rest of the country but those decisions have driven costs and they were always going to do that.
